## Key numbers

- Price: $19.73 (+88.1% in a year)
- P/E: 99.9×, against its own history
- Revenue (Jun 2026): ₹1.5 B (+3.5% on a year ago)
- Profit (Jun 2026): ₹0.1 B
- Operating margin: 7.6% (+5.6 points on a year ago)
- ROE: −5%, FY25

The main question: profits are rising, but only −7% of the last 2 years' profit came in as cash from operations. The gap between reported profit and actual cash is the thing to watch. ## What is the Youdao share price today? Youdao, Inc.'s share price was $19.73 at the close on 3 November 2026. That is 49.9% above its average price over the last 200 trading days. In the last 52 weeks it traded between $9 and $20, and at that close it sat 97% of the way up from that low. Over the past 13 weeks it has done better than the S&P 500, and it has stayed ahead for 19 weeks in a row. Over the last 1 year the share price moved +125% while the S&P 500 moved +21%, so it is ahead of the index over that whole period. The chart above shows the 13-week comparison for every week. This page treats a rise as over when the price closes below its 200-day average on two Fridays in a row. ## What dividend does Youdao pay? Youdao, Inc. pays no dividend. In the last 12 reported quarters it declared no dividend per share, so there is no payout history to chart and no yield to show. Companies like this usually keep their earnings in the business, so the cash-flow sections show where that cash goes. ## Which stock lists is Youdao on? Youdao is not in the Nasdaq 100, the S&P 500 or the Dow Jones 30, and is not on the US tech stocks list. ## Is Youdao profitable? Youdao, Inc. earned ₹0.1 B of net profit in the Jun 2026 quarter. Full-year FY25 profit was ₹0.1 B. That is 5.3% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier lost ₹0.02 B. 3 of the last 12 reported quarters were loss-making. For the full year, FY25 profit was ₹0.1 B (+29.0% on the year before). On average over the last four quarters, profit changed −63.1% and revenue +6.9%. Profit is growing slower than sales: rising costs are taking part of the growth. This company reports in its home currency, not US dollars, so the money charts are left out here. The figures in the text are in that currency (₹); nothing is converted. ## How much revenue does Youdao make, and is it growing? Youdao, Inc. reported ₹1.5 B of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter, +3.5% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 5th quarter in a row with growth on the year before. Over 4 years it has grown 10.1% a year on average. The last full year, FY25, came in at ₹5.9 B. The last four reported quarters add to ₹6.0 B. FY25 revenue was ₹5.9 B, +5.0% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +6.9% on average, against 10.1% a year over the longer run, so this year is growing slower than its own long-run rate. Is growth speeding up? Revenue over the last 12 months grew +6.8%, against +2.4% a year over the last 8 quarters (accelerating). This company reports in its home currency, not US dollars, so the money charts are left out here. The figures in the text are in that currency (₹); nothing is converted. ## How much of its sales does Youdao keep? Youdao, Inc.'s operating margin was 7.6% in the Jun 2026 quarter, 5.6 percentage points higher than the same quarter a year ago. Its latest full-year margin is the highest it has ever reported. Across 5 years it has been between −22.1% and 3.7%. The latest quarter is above every full year in that period. Across 5 years it has been between −22.1% and 3.7%, and FY25's 3.7% is the highest of them. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed +5.6 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed +5.9 points. So the gain came mostly from the gross margin, which means input costs and prices charged. When margins are at a record, every ratio built on profit looks better than usual, so watch whether they hold. ## Is Youdao's profit turning into cash? Over the last 2 years Youdao, Inc.'s operations used more cash than they brought in, so cash conversion was −7%, a gap worth watching. In FY25 it brought in ₹0.1 B of operating cash against ₹0.1 B of profit. After ₹0.0 B of spending on assets, ₹0.0 B was left over as free cash. Cash-flow figures here are yearly, because quarterly cash statements are not published, so this section changes once a year. Why: the cash figure is clear, but the day counts behind it are not in our data, so we show it without guessing the reason. What to look at next: it spends almost nothing on new assets, so the cash goes on running the business. The next section shows the spending figures. This company reports in its home currency, not US dollars, so the money charts are left out here. The figures in the text are in that currency (₹); nothing is converted. ## Where does Youdao's cash go? Youdao, Inc. does not report the customer, stock and supplier day counts a cash cycle needs, so this section looks at its spending on assets instead. It spent ₹0.0 B on assets over the last 3 years. Nothing is estimated in place of the missing day counts, so no cash-cycle chart is drawn. Spending on assets: ₹0.0 B over the last 3 years. In short: almost nothing is being spent on new assets, so the cash goes on running the business. This company reports in its home currency, not US dollars, so the money charts are left out here. The figures in the text are in that currency (₹); nothing is converted. ## What is Youdao's P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? Youdao, Inc.'s P/E is 99.9×, with too little history to compare. This compares the share price with the company’s own past. It does not say what the business is worth. In short: there is too little history to say whether the multiple is high or low for this company, so the earnings trend underneath matters more than the multiple. ## Is the Youdao business getting better or worse? Youdao, Inc.'s business trend cannot be read yet. There are fewer than eight usable quarters of growth figures, so there is not enough history to read the trend. This is based on 12 quarters of 1 measure, with some gaps. Why it matters: with too little history, we say so rather than guess a direction. The return-on-capital line is not shown: net worth is negative, so a return on capital means nothing. The balance sheet is in distress, and this reading uses the growth lines alone. One or more growth lines have an extreme jump caused by comparing with a near-zero or loss-making quarter. Those jumps are capped before reading and drawn at the edge of the chart, so one odd quarter does not decide the result. There are fewer than eight usable quarters, so this page does not guess a direction from so little history. ## How much does Youdao earn on its capital? Youdao, Inc. earned a ROE of −5% in FY25. We cannot compare its return on capital used with its cost of capital from the data we have. It comes from a 1.6% net margin and 2.99× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY25): a 1.6% net margin × 2.99× asset turnover × −1.02× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ −4.9% on equity. The margin does its share; borrowing plays a small part, so this return is earned, not borrowed. ## Does Youdao have too much debt? Youdao, Inc.'s net worth is negative: it owes more than it owns, so a debt-to-equity ratio means nothing here. Year by year, that ratio went from −1.72 in FY21 to −0.95 in FY25. So the returns on this page come from the business, not from borrowed money. This company reports in its home currency, not US dollars, so the money charts are left out here. The figures in the text are in that currency (₹); nothing is converted. ## What is the Youdao shareholding pattern? We have no ownership or short-position figures for Youdao, Inc., so this section says so rather than fill the gap. At normal trading volumes, closing those positions would take about 18.8 days. US companies do not publish a quarter-by-quarter list of owners, so this page uses short interest instead. ## How far is Youdao from balance-sheet trouble? For Youdao, Inc., the Z-score is not available, so we say so rather than guess one. It estimates how far the balance sheet is from trouble; it is not a forecast of failure. The debt, cash-flow and return sections show the balance-sheet figures we do have, each with its own date. ## How does Youdao rank in its industry? There is no score against its industry: Youdao, Inc. is not among the largest members shown in this industry comparison for Education & Training Services. The score ranks a company within its industry: each measure is scored against the other members. Without that group there is no score, so none is shown. ## Which companies is Youdao compared with?

Over the past 13 weeks it has done better than the S&P 500, for 19 weeks running. This describes what the data did, not a rating (as of 3 November 2026). ### Will Youdao's stock price go up?

Youdao, Inc.'s FY25 operating margin was 3.7%, against a 5-year range of −22.1% to 3.7%: the top of its range, a record year. When profit is at a record, every ratio looks better than usual, and the story depends on margins staying high. The latest quarter was 7.6%. Comparing margins with a company's own long history is a good way to see where it is in its cycle (as of 3 November 2026). ### What could break the Youdao story? The main question: profits are rising, but only −7% of the last 2 years' profit came in as cash from operations. The gap between reported profit and actual cash is the thing to watch. On price, this page treats a rise as over when the share price closes below its 200-day average on two Fridays in a row (as of 3 November 2026). ### Is Youdao a stock worth studying right now?
